If you watch this on .25 you will see a lady in the right corner take at least 6 photographs. At proper speed you barely notice her.

01/21/26 15:10: MD: Hi Luc D.
I remember when your electronics were stolen. It was many years ago. I still look at your time lapse videos.
The last time we chatted was at the start of Covid. Your daughter was moving in to stay with you.
I hope you are all well.
MD

Hello to anybody out there ..........
It's a lot like the Marie Celeste.
01/09/26 01:51: N Q: silversquirrel, sorry to hear that you were sick during your cruise, I hope you at least got to see some interesting things and hopefully the scenery made up for the wet/cold weather.
Homely I grew up in the same kind of neighborhood as you, mothers were all stay at home moms, no divorces and yes they wanted to get away from us enough that they let us run wild outside in places unknown to them. I don't think my parents ever knew just how far we traveled during the day but on the otherhand my town was small, only a few thousand people so neighbors probably told them just what we up to and where we had been, gossip was big in my neighborhood :)
01/06/26 22:37: Homely: Welcome Back, SS! We missed you! We were cruising in the Netherlands and Belgium and I keep joking that we did not see the light of day the entire time - just a lightening of the gloom between the hours of 9:30 and 3:30. And now I, too, am craving something warm! And also, I think that maybe a small boat in the winter time is just not a great idea from a health perspective - by the end of our week the entire boat had an upper respiratory virus that included vigorous coughing. It's taken me three weeks to get over it (so far). I think I need to try the Greek Islands...
Exciting to hear about another legal career! One of my dear friends was a clerk in the Md. Court of Appeals back in the very early 90s... he loved that job and he is now a very successful litigator. I did not do well enough in school to even be sniffed at for one of those jobs ;-)
01/06/26 22:30: Homely: N Q - My parents were surely scrambling to get away from the kids, and there were only two of us! Once quiet one (not me) and one troublemaker (me!). They always got a babysitter for NYE, which is probably why we were up and banging pots and pans outside! I grew up in a neighborhood that seems like a fantasy now - none of the moms worked outside of the home and nobody was divorced. By Friday night all the adults were climbing the walls to go out somewhere. I remember them doing lots of dinner theater and participating in groups like the Jaycees. None of that for my generation - we are all too busy working and too tired to go out at the end of the week!
01/05/26 04:53: silversquirrel: Homely, I didn't even know that you are a lawyer. I'm a retired judge's secretary. Appellate Court. 20 years in Maryland and seven years in Ohio. Great jobs. But I'm happy to be retired. Hubby still working.
